According to Apple products’ lifecycle, the iPad 2 will be announced in early 2011 (probably January 2011) and become available few months later.The coming iPad2 would definitely better than the 1st generation iPad. Rumors say iPad2 will include camera and support FaceTime video call (current iPad has no camera), lighter weight, USB port, Retina display (like in iPhone 4), and new 3-axis gyroscopes.My two centsIf you are buying iPad as a X’mas gift, then go ahead! It would be one of the best gift to your love!However, if you are buying iPad for yourselves, you might want to reconsider. After all, you have waited for so long time (almost 1 year) for iPad Malaysia, I bet you won’t mind to wait a few more months to get the next generation and better iPad 2.If you cannot wait anymore and you want an iPad NOW the BUY it!The latest iOS 4.2.1 update gave iPad a new life and make it a better iPad with new features such as multitasking, folders, etc.I am a happy iPad owner. Welcome to the club.Update: Along with Malaysia, there are 10 other countries launch iPad same day too: Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Hungary, Norway, Poland, Portugal, South Korea, Sweden, and Taiwan.
